Nirvana - Full SNL Rehearsal (Audio Remixed) Studio 8H, NBC Studios, NY 1993 September 23

[@chasing_dragons]

Thank you so much and God bless you a million times for posting this great and precious concert video. 🏁🏁🏁💯⭐️♥️ Both the live performance and the rehearsal video are so important to have. So at this time in fall 1993, I was in my first semester of college miserable with everything that is "college." I can still remember every single week looking forward to whoever the musical guests were coming up on SNL and various talk shows. Music was the only thing that kept me going honest to God and prevented me from self "erasing." I can still remember waiting up for this same Nirvana SNL 93 performance and was so surprised to see them with a second guitar player. It was immediately obvious they found the right guy. There is something about a two guitar dynamic that is amazing. As great as Nirvana was before, it was as if they finally made it to perfection with a second guitar player.

Man, even in a rehearsal, they sound beastly and gigantic.

[@brandeccohall]

Honestly the rehearsal sounded better than the actual performance.

Dave kills the drums

[@freeecountryy]

Dave is just killing it for these. Total beast. Makes sense that that they’d just play it exactly like they would if they were live. Something died when this band died, and I haven’t seen or heard it since, sadly.

[@ajdbear141]

i think wunderhorse gets quite close, especially their song “July”

[@heleneennenga4610]

Thes are great! They are just amazing! The energy/power is incredible. Wish i could have Seen them live.

[@grg537]

imagine that you whistle to the band that "start guys!" and the band is nirvana. that technician had the best time of his life there

[@piotrg.1855]

Not necessarily :)

[@lenafranklin7262]

Wow thanks

This footage was on Napster back in the day.

Just seeing Krist and Kurt discussing Kurt's guitar at 23:12 like buddies is cool

[@bleachicide]

Wow 30 years

[@thespiritworldband]

the camera operator: "Pat who?"

[@nancybsyb]

Thank you

[@scottyroxwell]

Dave like, "Oh, I thought this was the real performance."

[@luisgerardonunez4940]

I read a while ago that after this show Kurt was furious about the bad sound he had especially his out of tune guitar and he fired "Craig montgomery" his sound engineer since the "Bleach" era is there after this show in ahead, "Big John Duncan" joins the team to take charge of the guitar and sound.

[@aisle_of_view]

The guitar/amp does sound plinky here, but Kurt's mediocre performance of HSB on SNL was his own doing. He flubbed up the intro and it was downhill from there.

[@SteelCitySH]

I mean that’s what Pat Smear was for. But if you’re paying a guy to be in practically the biggest band in the world at the time and you can’t even hear him then what gives? Pretty bad mistake on the sound guy’s part but when you’re live that kinda shit happens. I think Craig (engineer) ended up blaming the studios for part of the flub. Not that surprising considering Saturday night live has had a history of screwups far worse than this one.

[@aisle_of_view]

Better version of HSB than the live broadcast.

[@soulslip]

Best live heart shaped box solo imho..

[@NahuelRubira-f2l]

Muy bueno !!!!

Legend band

[@benjamink7105]

This guitar is so sick. Did the Nirvana guitar guy do this one?

[@benjamink7105]

Also I like Kurt on the right side of the stage, so the guitar necks point toward each other. And the curve on the offset of most of his guitars rounds out the stage. Everything frames Dave better. Personal opinion and not that important.

[@SaumBodhi]

Would be cool to see a new band with Krist and Dave, and with someone who's unlike Kurt in ways yet someone who could fly as high creatively and with as wide a vocal sound range (tone, not range range). Don't know who that would be though honestly. Someone who's not secretly deep inside going to be thinking they are the new kurt. The idea would just be to get that amazing rhythm section back on the jams man they had something special going all 3 of them, quite the chemistry. They balanced eachother out quite beautifully. I guess i could have voted for Chris Cornell to be in that spot... but damn man now he's gone as well. They could have been a good match, IF all of them were to be into that idea in the first place. Mark arm, Frank Black, Michael Stipe, all great interesting signers but not quite it. Actually, now that I think of it, maybe PJ Harvey could pull it off. Kim Deal? Idk

I'll do it!
